The latest version of the program, PDF Print Control 4.05, offers a unique solution for managing print settings at the page level without needing to split up the PDF. Developed by Traction Software, this tool ensures that users can easily assign different pages of a single PDF file to multiple printer trays, making it a valuable addition to the Office Tools category, specifically within the Document management subcategory.

The application, available as PDFPrintControlRegister.exe, boasts a modest file size of 18.3 MB, making it a lightweight addition to any system. Compatibility is robust, supporting a wide range of Windows operating systems from Windows XP, 7, 8, 10, and 11. This ensures that nearly anyone using modern Windows systems can benefit from the program's features.

One of the standout functionalities is the ability to set all printer information such as printing resolution (dpi), color/mono settings, orientation, and tray assignments directly within the PDF. Users can even switch printers for different page ranges easily. For example, pages 1-5 could be printed in color on a Xerox printer, while pages 6-10 could be printed in black and white on an HP printer. All these settings are stored in the PDF, simplifying future print jobs by allowing users to just load the document and press a special print button in the Acrobat toolbar.

Moreover, the program includes several time-saving options like the ability to copy print settings between documents for easy migration and to replicate within a document for repeated settings changes, making tasks like setting alternating trays for consecutive pages efficient.

The PDF Print Control 4.05 version has evolved from its predecessors (versions 3.0, 1.1, and 1.0) with improved features and reliability. Users can enjoy quick markup by searching for specific text within the document and marking those pages with the desired printer settings. Another advanced feature includes injecting postscript during a print job, which allows for special printer finishing touches.

For those interested in exploring this effective print management tool, the free download of PDF Print Control 4.05 is available.

Pros:

  • Seamless print management at the page level.
  • Capability to assign different trays and printers within one document.
  • Lightweight with a file size of 18.3 MB.
  • Wide OS support from Windows XP to 11.

This software could be precisely what you need for efficient document printing, making printing tasks not just manageable but also highly customizable and streamlined.
